Remedy CEO Matias Myllyrinne explains that Capps' appointment will help "drive the company forward".

"I've known Mike for a long time as someone who I respect a lot," Myllyrinne, told Venture Beat. "His track record speaks for itself. He was very happy to take it on. He knows our track record, but I know he believes we have an even bigger and better future that he wanted to be a part of."

In addition to Capps, Remedy has also appointed Christian Fredrikson to its board. Fredrikson previously served as president of internet security firm F-Secure and overlooked Nokia Siemens' Asian business.

Remedy's next title, Quantum Break, is expected to release on Xbox One in 2014.
